Tri-tip burrito

Here's a thrown together meal that turned out pretty well, another of my "crap, it's dinner time what do we have in the fridge and what can i make out of it" situations, which sadly have become the norm.

I had some tri-tip cut into strips on hand, so I hit them with Survival Spice™ barbecue rub, and grilled them off with some onion, while I heated up some black beans, and sliced some Colby cheese. Threw some large tortillas on the grill after I removed the beef and onions, and made some quick burritos.

The trick with tri-tip cooked this way is to not overdo the heat, just a nice medium fire until they're medium rare.

The photo's not that good, I know, but the burrito was!

I have just licked my screen clean.

HA! Chile. It was pretty good for making it up with what I had. It really does pay to back off on the heat with the tri tip, I found.

Hey, tri-tip? What is you, from californee?

Isn't it amazing that people back east have no idea of what tri-tip is, Biggles? Good stuff, that.
